how much i LOVE elsie flannigan? she is SO sweet. I made her a cupcake necklace a while back, seeing as not only is she one of my role models, she is so inspiring! Well, I was so surprised and excited when I checked the mail today and she sent me a thank you note! :)

this is gretchen modeling the necklace I sent elsie.

Little things like this totally make me smile. <3 I HOPE YOU ALL HAD A WONDERFUL HOLIDAY!

Most memorable moment with sibling?My brother and I never really got along very well. He is 2 and a half years older than me, and we fought a lot. He always picked on me of course, he thought I was the golden child and was jealous of me. Let me assure you my mom loved us both the same, but I was sort of a goody goody. I remember one time, he stole ALL of my pokemon cards and put them in a box in his closet. I asked him where they went, and he told me someone came in and stole them. YEAH, like some random guy would come in and steal only my pokemon cards, and I wouldn’t have noticed, and he would want NOTHING else. Riiiiight. I threw a little fit, and stole them back another time. I think it might be a little sad that this is one of my most memorable moments…maybe I will share more later; or maybe I will continue to harbor resentment for the thievery of my pokemon cards; there were Japanese holographics in there!

*Most memorable moment with friends?*This will be a separate post…or several…at a later time.

What was your school experience like in...

elementary school I LOVED elementary school, so much fun, and so many friends, and “boyfriends” and so little to worry about. One of my most memorable elementary school friends (besides Amber) is Dana! We were practically inseparable, and were forever getting in trouble. Some others were Marissa & Michelle, we had a lot of sleepovers!

high school believe it or not I really enjoyed high school, mostly the social aspects of it of course, but I had a spectacular group of friends.

What do you think the silliest thing you ever did as a kid?I am a very silly person, so I definitely don’t think I could pinpoint one. I have come millimeters away from getting a kid to eat rabbit poop, and I have made a fat suit for myself to go to the park in. I have also spent many hours in the mall seal barking at people. Maybe those will be fun stories for later.

Did you ever get in trouble as a teenager, and if so, what kind of stuff did you do?This…is a loaded question… the answer…is yes. I got into trouble for just about everything a teenager could get in trouble for. But I am one of those people that really and truly learns from mistakes…for the most part, and I really try to advocate to teens when I can to help guide them in the right direction.

I stay in! and apparently do photoshoots with gretchen. :) This one was different than any other shoot I have done, and it was sooo much fun!!! It was inspired by a custom piece of jewelry I made, and I really enjoyed it. It's too bad my camera battery died...and I still have no flash. See more of these photos on my flickr!
